Creatively Writing

This series of workshops is designed to assist participants to write creatively. ‘Creative writing' is mostly seen as ways to write fiction. And in creative writing programs, great emphasis is put on finding ways to assist writers and authors to have their creative juices flowing, when they are writing and as they are writing. However, this process is not considered when having people write material that is of a non-fiction variety. Which somehow doesn't make sense to me as writing non-fiction should surely require a greater degree of creative flow.

This program will address the area of creatively writing. It will work on participants warm ups to writing and we may spend time considering the impacts of our early education on how we respond to writing, to having our writing made public, to what we expect of ourselves when we write. The aim of this will be to craft a warm up that has participants view writing as a pleasurable, entertaining and essentially creative process.

Advanced trainees will often leave the writing of a thesis or a social and cultural atom paper or a closed and open systems paper until they absolutely ‘have to'. They may find themselves procrastinating for a wide variety of reasons. If we consider these reasons as conflicted warm ups or absent warm ups then we can work psychodramatically free them up to write. This may form some of the work of the workshops.

Often people writing about their work, warm up to being evaluated, criticised or critiqued in a negative manner. In this short course writing you will be invited to see writing about your practice as a Morenian, as reflection on practice, as a way to learn from yourself and as a way to stimulate and enthuse others. Participants can expect to have a framework for writing their thesis and papers for certification and to have progressed them by the programs end. Participants will work in pairs as study buddys.
